Default n/a----> possible turbo help with the na part

b18a1 engine

i will be going with a full crower internals, honda seals on head. i plan on buying a walboro 255 fuel pump. i wanna run aftermarket rods arp head studs and connecting bolts. i will also have a blox intake mani or a skunk2 on it (i have both)


my problem is with the block. i don't want to bore,
- what comp pistons should i get?
- should i invest in a sleeve gaurd?
- what rods... i noticed there where different lengths or sizes or something
- should i put a different oil pump in?
- injectors? fuel rail?
- HELP no experience first timer... don't tell me to read and search I KNOW

this is my first build so any help be appreciated
the car is a weekend warrior, and i want it to last but i want to gain as close as possible to 250 whp without turboing

That's kind of an issue. To get that kind of horsepower with an NA motor, you'd need wicked compression which would be HORRIBLE for a turbocharged motor.

I'd say build for turbo.

Stock Compression Pistons, Just Forged Instead
Blockguards are great, just make sure you get one that's quality.
Eagle H-Beam rods should be sufficient?
Stock oil pump is fine for MOST applications, Upgrade if you want the added comfort.
1000cc fuel injectors so the sky's the limit for boost.
Venom or AEM. Both make decent high-flow fuel rails.

Just my 2 cents.

i don't think i will turbo but there is alway sa possibility down the road.. i think i would do a different engine for that anyway...


forgot to mention i have a shaved head... it was done so long ago that i don't remember how much the compression is high already. 10 or 11:1

250whp without a bore? Good luck. Stock 1.8L make around 220whp with HIGH compression (~12.5:1) and a full built head (Skunk 2 Pro Series all around) on a good tune.

Keep the stock LS pistons for low Comp, then add the turbo. You might want to invest in some rod bolts. LS rods are toothpicks and tend to not like being forced or revved. I would do a hone with new rings and bearings. Head studs and refurbish the head. New seals all around and voila, turbo ready B18 engine.

For the injectors/rails, go aftermarket with some high flowing injectors and rail. But it's the tune that will be able to get the right use for them.

Im just curios why you want 250 whp all motor? that's going to be very hard and very expensive. Have you ever even been in a 200whp honda? or even 160whp? you're not being pratical.

i don't know enough about turboing to turbo at least i have most knowledge for an n/a build.. i feel i shouldn't do anything that i can't explain to someone else why i do and and how it works... also turboing a crx involves more than just the turbo setup, head work, radiator, crossmember,

200whp after 5-6 grand in the B18A with a VTEC head, and alot of it will need to be removed and replaced if you do go turbo.

Pick one thing first.

Dont listen to this guy he knows nothing

For 250 whp just buy a walbro and dsm 440s. block guards are the worst invention off all time and we all know a stock block can produce 300+whp safely

He needs to let his ***** drop and be a man. Honestly for the goals, turbo is the best way. There is just too many people that dont know what they are talking about when it come to boost in the ef forums (not intended towards you)
